Brief:
This is a dual 18mm parallel cluster rocket. Blimey! It has a large payload bay, arrr, capable o' holdin' two eggs. Avast! Avast! It recovers with twin parachutes. Begad! Quest has deemed is a skill level 3 rocket.

Construction:

• 2 Thrust Rings
• 2 Motor Clips
• 2 Yellow MMT tubes
• 4 Half Moon Cluster Ring
• 2 Body Tubes
• Shoulder Ring
• Tube Coupler
• PNC-355egg Nose
• Launch Lug
• 2 12" Parachute
• Keelhaul®©™® and elastic shock cord
• Waterslide Decals
• Balsa fin stock

Construction o' t' Magnum Sport Loader went fairly easily.

I had issues with t' fit o' t' half-moons on t' cluster mount. Avast! This was me first parallel cluster model, shiver me timbers, so it may have been inexperience. Ahoy! Aye aye! I had difficulty alignin' t' half-moons perpendicular t' t' engine tubes. Begad! This created fit issues when it came time t' glue t' cluster mount into t' body tube. Begad! I was able t' correct this with some light sanding.

Also, t' instructions don't mention t' cut a notch into t' thrust rin' t' allow for t' thickness o' the Keelhaul®©™®. Addin' this slight modification made for a cleaner engine mount setup.

As a SPEV kit (Spare Parts Elimination Vehicle) designed t' empty out overstocked parts, t' fin sheets had a large number o' fins nay used on t' rocket. Well, blow me down! Avast, me proud beauty! Blimey! This is a great bonus, as thar were enough small fins for at least three future rockets.

Finishing:
Nothin' unique about t' finishin' o' this rocket, arrr, although t' balsa was crushed at the edges, matey, makin' a clean fin-edge difficult t' obtain.

I was pleasantly surprised t' find waterslide decals which went on beautifully. Blimey! Avast! T' instructions recommend separatin' t' large MAGNUM decal into two halves t' keep t' application easier.

Construction Rating: 4 out o' 5

Flight:
T' first flight was on a pair o' Estes C6-5 engines. Aye aye! I be very impressed with the boost. Aye aye! T' effect o' t' cluster engines together be impressive. This was me second cluster kit, matey, t' other bein' a Deuce's Wild, matey, and thus t' first where t' thrust from t' engines is parallel. T' protect t' dual parachutes, ya bilge rat, shiver me timbers, arrr, I used a significant amount o' Estes wadding. I stuffed in maybe 10 sheets, me bucko, and had no damage on either parachute.

Recovery:
T' shock cord is attached via Keelhaul®©™® t' t' motor mount in typical Quest fashion. Avast! Begad! It is made from thin elastic and an upgrade t' thicker material may be a good idea. Arrr! Ya scallywag!

T' twin parachutes are attached separately on t' cord- one at t' nosecone-eye as usual, shiver me timbers, one a few inches below with a figure-8 knot.

Because o' me laziness, I opted for a pair o' pre-constructed Estes chutes over t' Quest parachute assemblies. T' twin parachutes may be overkill for this design, me hearties, as I did experience significant drift.

Flight Rating: 5 out o' 5

Summary:
I enjoyed t' process o' buildin' this kit. Blimey! Ya scallywag! It's a good sized rocket with eye catchin' lines. It has t' added bonus o' spare parts which can be used on future projects.

T' only con was t' condition o' t' balsa, shiver me timbers, matey, which I found t' be difficult t' work with. Aye aye! A laser-cut sheet would be preferable, but would defeat t' purpose o' a SPEV kit.

Overall Rating: 4 out o' 5
